WE HAVE A WINNER!!! AMBER H.'S ENTRY WAS CHOSEN BY THE RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR!

Don't you want to win this?

As you probably can guess, I think way too much about food. Besides feeding my family on a daily basis, I'm usually thinking up some new recipes, working on an article or two, pinning good-looking eats from other websites .... you get the picture.

One recipe that has eluded me through all of this food obsession was a good recipe for vegan corn pudding. What is corn pudding you might ask? It is kinda like mushy cornbread, but better. My mom went through a phase of serving it up as a side dish for a while when I was a kid. Every recipe I have looked at uses too many eggs for me to easily substitute, and my attempts have not yielded what I am searching for.

That is just one of many reasons that I jumped for joy when I received a copy of Great Gluten-free Vegan Eats to review. This delightful cookbook is written by Allyson Kramer, the blogger behind Manifest Vegan, a completely awesome website. Great Gluten-free Vegan Eats is just what I would have expected from such a talented recipe writer and food photographer. The book is gorgeous and filled with dishes that I think most anyone would want to rush to cook.

Baked Corn Pudding

Some standouts include:

Baked Corn Pudding

Asparagus and Mushroom Tacos

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

Wendy's Zesty Black Eyed Pea Salad

You get the picture.

And, by the way, the corn pudding was just as good as I remembered it.

Don't you want a copy of this cookbook, too? Good thing the publisher will send one to one of my lucky readers!

Remember, I need to be able to let you know that you won. Either check out this post or the Facebook page on Wednesday, September 5 or leave contact info in your comments. I will pick a winner after noon CST on Wednesday, September 5, 2012 using a random number generator.

i lost 80 lbs and recently went raw for 30 days! i'm thinking a gluten free, vegan lifestyle is the perfect landing place. i was looking up books and saw this one and then saw you were having a giveaway! i follow you on twitter (@AmberNHumphries) and on pinterest (Amber Humphries) and on your facebook (Amber Humphries). my email is amberhumphries at gmail.com! thank you so so much for the opportunity!

My whole family (parents and younger sister) have been diagnosed as gluten/dairy/soy/MSG/sugar intolerant (to various degrees). I have long suspected it of myself, and now my husband (of 7 months) is suspecting his own sensitivity to gluten and who-knows-what-else. I'm also an avid nutrition geek and can't ever seem to get enough information or recipes that truly nourish our bodies. And now my husband and I are trying to eat vegan several days a week (for multiple reasons), on top of all the food allergies. It's been overwhelming at times to say the least, but I'm enjoying the learning process. Any and all resources I can get my hands on are huge helps in the journey towards happier, healthier bodies :) I LOVE your website for that reason :)

As a nine-plus year vegan, I have also become very interested in many alternatives ways of cooking and using inexpensive and new ingredients. I have a few gluten-free meals that I like to make and this would expand that knowledge. I love reading the Manifest Vegan blog, always so fun with great photos of yummy food!My e-mail- tumblesonabbie@yahoo.com

I would love to win this book. I have recently developed a wheat allergy, and have been trying many new recipes to broaden the selection of tasty dishes! Thank you for posting so many fabulous recipes!!!

I just liked you on FB. My 2 1/2 year old is intolerant to gluten, dairy, soy, eggs, corn, and peas. Since I'm nursing him, I'm off all of those things as well. I've been veg for almost 20 years and wasn't about to quit now. So I love, love, love your cookbook and would like to win a copy of the other one too!

My husband and I just officially went vegan. I stopped consuming dairy, egg, and soy when my daughter was born because she was intolerant, so all I had to do this month was remove meat which I didn't mind doing! My husband becoming a vegan is HUGE because he was raised on fast food and frozen dinners full of cheese, meat, and more cheese. I am so proud of him and I know this cookbook would be a wonderful addition to our newly transformed kitchen inhabitants ;)
